I have a new hero......Jakam

Thanks for taking the time to post your kit; all the detailed and organized photos are great.
I like it; and I don't see any comment to add, that has not already been covered by others above.

I like the looks of that Magnifier/Whistle/Thermometer combo; I would like to add that item to my kit. Can you tell me the brand and/or source of that item?

Zipties? Can never have enough of them for quick lashing.

I like the redundancy. But maybe too much.

Don't likes:

No matches- they have a place. You've got lots of lighters, you can drop one. And wedge the plungers on the ones you have.

Another water bottle would be nice.

No real shelter. If you are giong to make shelter, an axe would be nice. A saw is great, but for serious work, even I reach for an axe.

You've got a LOT of food procurement, but no food. Will some be added?

No spare clothes. Not even socks that I can see.

Redundant items have an important alternate use: giveaways. When the mega-whatever hits and I have to hoof it home, some of my co-workers will have a similarly long walk in the other direction. If I can at least hand him a Bic, a water bottle and a space blanket, I've improved his odds a bit.

I still wonder how this all will be carried, and what it weighs...

"Redundant items have an important alternate use: giveaways."

Good point, Jeff. That's in my mind too as I collect and store stuff.
But I've noticed that I have a problem figuring out where to draw the line.

"If I can at least hand him a Bic, a water bottle and a space blanket..."

That part of your post reminds me to keep it simple and finite.
Thank you.

Thanks, Still Alive,

I am going to post pics at some point.............

Here is a link to photos of some gear that I have. I have updated some items and added some new gear that are not in the pictures. A Coleman titanium multi-fuel stove, Snow Peak titanium fork/knife/spoon set, Brunton fork/knife/spoon set, MSR pack towel, 400mL MSR Titanium fuel bottle(already have 2 800mL), Evernew Titanium non stick fry pan, REI hang up clothesline, Sea to Summit Pocket Soap(dry leaves of soap),Princeton Tec EOS tactical headlamp, ect. I will try and get some updated pics on soon.
